akibun 0 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I am interested in finding more about this like now I am studying some history. I read something about Orthodox Jews and their tradition, one I think is about hair and side part coming down like hanging. Can anybody know much about it and why do that?

sanjo 2 Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 You might want to see this akibun http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthodox_Judaism And... Following a Biblical commandment not to shave the sides of one's face, male members of some Hasidic groups wear long, uncut sideburns called payot (Ashkenazic Hebrew payos). Not every Hasidic group requires long payot, but all groups forbid the cutting of the beard. All Hasidic boys receive their first haircuts ceremoniously when they are three years old. Until then, Hasidic boys have long hair. The custom has been adopted by many non-Hassidic (and even non-Orthodox) Jews. Link to post Share on other sites
